Fact: Your “facts” are incorrect. #1 killer 15-40 is gunshot wound.
lol where do you get your ‘facts’?
lol, where do you get your “facts” son?
Legal or not, people that use are going to use it, for whatever reason they have. Legality really has no bearing.
We do not all advocate legalization of drugs. Liberal is just a word you have heard and been told is bad.
Because they want everyone as messed up, uneducated and have everyone living on welfare as a socialistic country. And gunshot wounds are not the #1 killer. It is disease which is why we need stem cell research. Cardiovascular diseases alone have caused 72.million deaths.
Your facts of marijana killing people is not true however.
Fact is Bayer was a German company pre World War II.
fact- you are incorecct
1. state where you got your facts
2. they are wrong (see #1)
3. alcohol and cigarettes
4. its both liberals and conservatives
5. hemp should be legal for agricultural purposed
Fact: BAYER Corp in WWII made mustard gas for the Germans……… Did you eat an aspirin from them today? Hmmm…that may become just a matter of your perspective.
Remember the Left…The Middle and the Right in politics..
Fact one is a blatant lie! I cannot take anything else you say seriously. Sorry.
And I quote: “Fact: Marijuana remains the number 1 killer of people between the ages of 15-40.”
Really? Why have I never heard that anywhere else? You’d think something as drastic as that would be publicized just a bit more, wouldn’t you?
I would LOVE to know the “source” of your “fact”.
fact alcohol is the number one leading cause of death for a legal drug.
quit taliking out of your ass we all know the reason weed isn’t legal is because the government cannot figure out how to tax it and stop it from being so cheap on the street.
the only reason it is illegal is because it is basically untaxable. when the feds find a way to make money off of it it will be legalized the same way booze is now.
the government does not give a shit about our health only money.
Fact: According to the CDC, there were 370 drug-related deaths in 2004.
Fact: According to the CDC, there were 29,569 gun-related deaths in 2004.
Fact: Conservatives constantly battle against firearm restrictions.
Question: Who’s the real killer here?
Note: I don’t support marijuana use, despite my answer. I read an article on BBC news just yesterday stating smoking one joint is just as harmful as 5 cigarettes. But that’s nowhere near the level or severity you’re claiming.
what in the fuckin hell are you talkin about fact: marijuana is most definitly not the killer of any age group fact:marijuana is the most un harmfull drug out of all drugs fact: the number one killer of people in there 15-40 is alchol by drinking and driving fact:were do you get this ridicules informatin about marijuana fact:you are a dumeass also they want it legilized because it will make crim rate go down because marijuana makes you happier it never makes you angry you wouldent hurt a fly when youre high on marijuana thats why oh and by the way you need some help pal
the weed has been here for thousands of years, and every culture uses it. most country’s do not have laws against it. this country will not make it legal because the government wants to tax it and is afraid people will grow their own and not pay the tax.also too much money is made off the taking of property from people that are charged with having it.i think it should be made legal and taxed like cigarettes and alcohol. then our government would have enough money to help our own citizens that need help
Marijuana is the number 1 killer of people between ages 15-40?
I don’t smoke pot anymore, but that fact seems a little hard to believe if you’ll kindly pardon me, can you show where you got that figure from?

I am far from being a liberal but I’ve often thought that marijuana should be legalized. People with chronic pain should be able to use marijuana. I am not questioning that it can be dangerous but the number one killer??? I would think there are many other bigger killers ie: alcohol, heroin, gang activity, cocaine, meth for example.
My reason for considering legalization is that so much time, money, and man power is spent looking for roaches in cars that could better be spent on ridding our country of the meth labs and the drug dealers who bring in tons of cocaine, heroin and mind-altering pills.
Which moronic harpy gave you that little artifact? Coulter, Malkin?
Nice try troll.
so then, they can tax it and make more money
Your facts are wrong, sweetie, and most liberals advocate decriminalization of drugs. Alcohol is so very much more dangerous than any illegal drug, but remains legal. More people die from alcohol and alcohol related illnesses than all of the illegal drugs combined.
As long as there is demand, there will be those that supply. In countries that decriminalize certain drugs, drug users are able to purchase small amounts of drugs legally. They are still allowed to work and pay taxes. The money generally used to fight “the war on drugs” (Boy, what a freaking joke!) is used towards drug treatment. Here’s the biggie: More people go for the treatment.
Did I mention that the drugs were taxed? How about decreased drug related violence (Drug dealers find they have to find another way to make money.)
Ah- It’s another tedious round of “Blame the Liberals” Yawwwnnnnn.
All “Facts” and not one reference… if you found it on a christian site, most likely, sorry to say, its untrue. I’m christian and I am so disgusted about the “christian websites.”
Anyway, Marijuana is a healthy “drug” it was used for years for medicinal purposes. I havent ever smoked it, personal preference.
A better question would be, “why do ignorant people get on here and make broad generalized statements, with no facts to back up their claims?”
Fact: Last year there were 30,708 gun deaths, 35,450 alcohol-related deaths, and over 400,000 tobacco deaths. Do you know how many marijuana-related deaths there were last year? Zero! In 2005… zero!
I don’t abdicate the use of drugs for anyone, particuarly children. Having had my own particular stuggles with addiction as a younger man, I understand how irresponsible it is to make light of the use and abuse of illicit drugs while in the presence of impressionable young minds. However, once again you have completely misrepresented the truth. What some Democrats have proposed is not the legalization of marijuana but the decriminalization of marijuana. This means that any ADULT in posession of less than one ounce of marijuana is not considered to be in violation of the law.
Marijuana poses no greater public health risk than nicotine or alcohol and doesn’t share the same addictive properties of heroin and LSD. Yet, bizarrely, the law categorizes it as a Schedule I narcotic while putting a government seal on a pack of cigarettes. While Democrats and Republicans alike swill cocktails like water at every fundraiser and stuff their campaign war-chests with billions of dollars from tobacco companies, it seems a tad hypocritical that we’re still keeping the taboo on marijuana alive.
